Doggy Day Care • Aug 20, 2026

Each time Clarissa has watched my dog she has done an excellent job. She sent me updates during the day to let me know how my dog was doing. Clarissa even sent me pictures of my dog. I recommend Clarissa to anyone who is looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter.

Wonderful experience! She sent photos and kept me up to date on how he was doing every day. I will definitely be boarding my kitty with her in the future.

Clarissa did an amazing job making our pup Kobe feel right at home! She sent regular picture and video updates and communicated very well with us throughout his stay. He had a blast hanging out with her family and her pup Milo. He’ll definitely be back again! :)

Schedule

My schedule is flexible, allowing me to easily adapt to your pet's feeding, playtime, and potty break needs. Your pets will receive constant companionship and care throughout the day.I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful. Rest assured, I'll treat them like my own family, providing the same love and attention they're used to. Although I’m pretty flexible because of my kids schedules pick up and drop off times aren’t as open. We can discuss morning drops off as for pickup during the weekdays I can not do anything later than 8pm and weekends no later than 9pm this goes for daycare and boarding. Also id appreciate a time frame, no more than 2hour time gap this applies for the times you put for pick and drop off. This helps me better schedule my day for any other pup or kitties that may be coming or going.

Safety, trust & environment

For pet sitting in my home: Safety First: My fenced yard is regularly checked for any hazards, and I supervise all outdoor playtime to keep everyone safe. My dog, Milo, is very friendly and loves to play with his toys. Comfort and Enrichment: Inside, your pet will have plenty of space to relax and feel comfortable. I provide cozy bedding and engaging toys to keep them entertained. We'll also enjoy plenty of playtime and cuddles, just like they're used to at home. Individualized Care: I'm happy to follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special needs they may have. For pet sitting in the client's home: (Only applies for drop in visits) Respect and Responsibility: I understand that your home is your pet's safe space. I will treat it with the utmost respect, following your instructions for alarm systems, cleaning up after your pet, and maintaining their usual routine. Peace of Mind: While I'm there, I can also take care of tasks like bringing in the mail, watering plants, and rotating lights to give your home a lived-in look while you're away. Communication is Key: I believe in regular communication, so I'll send you text or photo updates so you can see how your furry friend is doing.

A typical day

A typical day is filled with fun activities like playtime! My kids and I absolutely love playing with furry friends. We'll shower your pet with lots of love and cuddles throughout the day. If you're comfortable, we can also go for walks around our neighborhood.

I'd love to learn a bit more about your pets before we get together. What's their feeding schedule like? Are they crate trained? How do they typically act around new people? (Friendly, shy, etc.) This helps me know what to expect and how to best interact with them. I ask about being crate trained because at nights and when I step out I can not leave the dogs out and about.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
